Products Description
Eucalyptus oil, with the chemical formula C₁₀H₁₈O, is a colorless, oily liquid extracted from the branches and leaves of plants such as Eucalyptus globulus and camphor trees. Its main components include 1,8-cineole (over 80%), camphene, and terpineol. It has a cool eucalyptus aroma and camphor odor, is slightly soluble in water, readily soluble in ethanol and oils, and has a flash point of 50℃.
Application
Eucalyptus oil is one of the most commonly used essential oils. With the increasing popularity of candy and chewing gum, a major use of eucalyptus oil is as a food additive. The refreshing and clean appeal of synthetic fragrances has significantly impacted the cosmetics industry (such as toothpaste and oral hygiene products) and other household cleaning products, as well as the aroma of perfumes. Eucalyptus oil is also used in the pharmaceutical industry as an antibacterial agent, particularly for treating respiratory infections and similar ailments.
